Sunset sessions come to Woodbridge!
DJs Chris Coco and Ben Osborne will launch Woodbridge Festival of Arts And Music 2021 and a summer of Sunday afternoon and sunset sessions at The Boathouse; Woodbridge’s new riverside bar and kitchen.
Sunday 25 April sees the launch of the new season of DJ sets by the water, Sun Deck Sundays, with DJ Chris Coco (The Chill Out Tent) and the town’s Ben Osborne (Noise of Art) at The Boathouse based at Whisstocks, 15 years after they played together to launch Noise of Art at The Tate and BFI in April 2006.
Chris Coco is an international DJ and producer, writer and radio presenter who’s played every continent except Antarctica! A White Isle favourite, he’s played all the major clubs in Ibiza, and major festivals including Glastonbury, Roskilde, Big Chill and Bestival. Whether he’s spinning a club set of classic and future house; getting weird in a back room or poolside with dub disco and Balearic, opening for Robbie Williams' world tour; or masterfully soundtracking an Ibiza sunset, there are few DJs who have his breadth of musical knowledge and obsession with finding the perfect track to make every moment feel special.
DJ Ben Osborne was described as a “polymath” by Time Out. He’s an award winning creative producer and founder of Noise of Art (“an actual Cathedral of Sound” The Guardian). He DJs internationally at festivals, including Glastonbury, Sonar, Big Chill, Chateau Perché and Latitude. His career includes pioneering late night music events in art institutions in London and DJ residencies in clubs across Europe. He’s worked with diverse acts such as Groove Armada, Booka Shade, Gilles Peterson, Ashley Beedle, Laurent Garnier, Leee John of Imagination, Horse Meat Disco DJs, Andrew Weatherall, Danny Rampling, Justin Robertson, Martyn Ware (Heaven 17/ Human League), Red Snapper and many more. He’s also a journalist and author and has presented shows on Xfm, NME Radio and Slack City Radio.
Sun Deck Sundays is a twice monthly afternoon into sunset music session on the shores of the River Deben in partnership between The Boathouse Bar & Kitchen and Woodbridge Festival of Art and Music.
